What's that, the Romans?

- It's Saturday night.
- Summer reading list.

Aren't you getting
ahead of yourself?

This year I'd like
to actually do something

besides reading
about Carthaginians.

Like go to the beach?

Alexander?

Please.

I ran into his mother yesterday.
He'll be back in a few weeks.

He's like this book, Mom:
History.

Well... sure you don't
want to come along?

- On your date?
- Why not?

Just seeing a movie.

A.) It'd be creepy.

B.) See A.

Have fun in Rome.

There's turkey
in the fridge.

- Bye.
-Bye, honey.

Because our dial-up sucks,
is why.

I spoke to the super
about the DSL.

He says the management company
wants to go with cable instead.

Mom, I'll be in grad school

by the time they
finally get it installed.

You know, you could invite your
friends over here for a change.

Oh, that's right.

- I completely forgot.
- What?

I forgot that our refrigerator
is not a refrigerator,

but actually, it's a
state-of-the-art computer

with a blazing graphics
processor.

With reduced fat milk inside.

Mama, what will
they think of next?

You know, there's more to life
than computers.

Yeah, and you keep
telling me that.

Look, I'm just going
to take the 104.

It puts me a block away
from the cafe.

You can always reach me.

Even got Kanye on the ring tones
just for you.

Let me guess who
paid for that.

- I'll be back by 11:00.
- 10:00.

- Peace, Mama.
- Don't peace me.

Come back here,
I'm still your mother.

Come give me a kiss.

That's what I'm talking about.

Don't wait up for me.

Agent Malone?

You remember
Ross Garner, WWEN?

Yes, so I do.

Your ASAC here
briefed me on those kids.

I was hoping to get a head start
on a couple of questions.

I'm a little busy
right now.

I'm on my way
to an interview.

Well, I told him we'll be doing
a formal briefing at 1100 hours.

I love it when she talks
military time.

Any chance our missing girl's
a runaway?

Uh, it's a little too early
to talk about either case.

By inflection and attitude, I'll
take that as a probably not.

You know what, the press room
is on the first floor.

This is going to be big, Jack.

You're going to need
all the help you can get.

Play nice, Jack.

You can't leave him down
there forever.

I'll let him back up when he
wants to talk about both cases.

No, I've never seen her.

Did Darnell have any run-ins
with drug dealers
in the neighborhood?

No.

- Any gang trouble?
- That's not Darnell.

Okay, it says here
that he attends Rosebrook Prep.

Any problems there?

No, I spoke to his teachers and guidance counselors just last week.

They had nothing
but good to say.

You know, I have a teenage son.

And it often surprises me
how I only find out

about things after the fact.

And that's if I'm lucky.

Can I ask you where you live?

Brooklyn Heights.

That area, you can
afford not to know.

Where does Darnell's
father live?

Houston, but we haven't seen him
in years.

Okay, well,
just so you know,

we're following up with
the transit authority.

We're canvassing the
neighborhood for any witnesses.

I brought some pictures

for the press.

Uh, the detective
told me to.

I didn't know which ones
to bring,

so I just took
whatever I could find.

This one will be fine.

Can you get it on the news?

We'll see what we can do.

I'll start circulating it now.

Who is he?

His name is
Darnell Williams.

He went missing about
the same time as your daughter.

He attends Rosebrook Prep.

Did Emily ever mention socializing
with any of those students?

I've never heard her mention it.

- Mr. Grant?
- I wouldn't know.

I mean, I hardly ever see her.

Only every other
weekend.

Well, according to your doorman,

he saw Emily leave
just before 8:00 p. m.

She told me she was staying in
for the night.

And you were on a date?

Yes, I got back
around midnight.

I started calling her friends,
then the police around 3:00 a. m.

Does she have a boyfriend?

She did, but he broke up with
her before his semester abroad.

Anyone since?

Between school and her internship
at the Rother Museum,

I don't know how
she'd have time.

But of course, I'd be
the last to know.

Talked to Elizabeth's mom.

They're looking for counselors this summer
at this camp in the Berkshires.

Summer at Berkshires means bugs.

Pays good.

You never know who you'll meet.

Sounds like a setup.

Sounds like fun to me.

I can't see anything wrong
with spending a summer outside of the city.

Except living vicariously.

I made my mistakes.

It's my job to make sure
you don't make the same ones.

What is that?

- What?
- The tattoo.

It's nothing.

Don't tell me it's nothing.
When did you get it done?

A month ago.

It's no big deal, okay?

You should have
talked to me first.

Why? So you could say no?

I figured it was
a moment of rebellion.

Better she get a tattoo
than have a drug problem.

There's probably something
else I should mention.

What?

Emily stole money from
my ATM.

400 bucks... a few weeks ago.

Do you have any idea
what the money was for?

A prom dress.

She doesn't have a date
for the prom, Victor.

She was obviously
lying to you.

You think?

I guess I was feeling guilty
about the divorce.

I figured why not
cut her some slack.

- Hey.
- Hey.

How's Darnell's mother?

Well, she maintains
that her son's a saint.

I'm hoping the school will
be a bit more forthcoming.

How about your girl?

Possibly disturbed
about her parents' divorce.

Could be a runaway.

- Any leads yet?
- No.

I hear VanDoren
is handling the press.

So, could you see
that she gets this?

I will put it in
her hands myself.

Thank you.

Okay.

We had a staff meeting
about Darnell this morning.

Everyone's very concerned.

His file says Darnell
has two classes with you.

Two classes
and an after-school lab.

I wish I had 20 Darnells.

He could probably teach
this class, if he wanted to.

How was he getting along
with the other students?

Very well, considering
he knew no one when he came here.

But last week, I got a glimpse of him
I had never seen before.

Look, I don't know why, man,
okay? It's just off.

But you were the one
that came to me, man.

All right? So I'm
keeping my money.

- Yeah, and I said the deal's off.
- Is there a problem?

No.

Look, just stay out
of my face, all right?

- Look, I said I want my money...
- Get off me, bitch!

That's enough!
What is this about?

And what's that?

It's mine, all right?

It's mine if you don't
tell me what's on it.

It's just a bootleg
I burned at home.

Miss Carter here says she was
going to buy it from me,

but then I guess
things changed.

Well, hand it over.

Now both of you sit down.

The school has a policy against
burning and trading CDs on campus.

I suppose you checked
the CD out?

Mostly hard-core rap-
heavy gang element.

School's got a policy
against that, too.

Well, we're going to need
to speak to Carter.

He's out all week on vacation
with his parents.

What's up?

Never sneak up
on a brother.

Good thing we don't
give you a gun.

What do you got?

Well, I looked at the CD,
and there is a full bootleg on it,

but that's not
the only thing.

These are personnel files
from the teachers at the school.

Which means he hacked
the passwords.

It's pretty impressive.

But that's not
the only thing.

Click here...

takes you straight into
the school's master grading system.

Presto change-o...

that F in English class
becomes an A.

Well, Rosebrook's
an Ivy League feeder.

I'll bet you there's no shortage
of kids

that want to change
their grades.

Yeah, or who might want to shut
up the kid who did the hacking.

Come on in.

Emily Grant's the lead
on all three affiliates,

and the wires picked up
the story.

So now we need to talk
about your division of labor.

Really?

Yes. You need more agents
on the Emily Grant case.

I think it's a little too early
to make that call.

These kids have been missing
for two days.

With all this
media exposure,

most of the tips
will be about the girl.

We are making solid progress
on both cases.

I really think that we should
treat them equally.

- This doesn't make any sense coming from you.
- Don't play the race card with me, Jack.

- Since when is kidnapping a racial crime?
- This is about time and information.

I know exactly
what this is about.

I am not gonna let you
handle this the right way

and we end up
with two dead kids.

And what do you suggest
I tell Agent Johnson?

She's still the lead
on the Williams case.

We will allocate manpower to her
as she needs it.

I assume this is coming
from up top.

Make the changes, Jack.

Either you do it or I do it,
but it's gonna happen.

In our lead story,
we're getting more information

on the disappearance
of Emily Grant,

the Manhattan teenager
who left her apartment

two days ago
and hasn't been seen since.

So, the tip caller says
he saw Emily Grant

at Caffeinated Coffeehouse two days
before she went missing? Mm-hmm.

This is an image grabbed
from the security camera.

All right? Now, she
never goes to the reg,

but take a look
at this next shot.

All right, 15 seconds later,
you see the flash?

Camera flash?
Right.

And it's bouncing off
of this mirror here.

Now, look at the booth, upper-
right-hand corner of the mirror.

There she is.
Now, who's that across from her?

I can't tell, but he's
a bit of a shutterbug.

And you can't get an I.D.
on him?

Not from this angle, no.

I'll tell you this much, the guy
looks a little bit too old

- to be a high school student.
- Yeah.

You can't really tell,
but I wouldn't be surprised

if she was having trouble
with guys,

the way she's been acting.

How's she been acting?

You know,
I- I feel guilty gossiping.

You'll get over it.

Okay, well, it was the other
day, I went back to the office

to get some paper
for the copier,

and I guess she didn't
expect me to be there.

What are you doing?

Hey.

Come on, you know we're not
supposed to touch that stuff, Em.

I'm the one who found it
in the antiquities.

What is this, finder's keepers?

Look, I need it, Rose.

I promised someone at school,
and mine's broken.

I won't do it again;
it's just this time.

Whatever.

I didn't see anything.

Thanks.

You know, I actually believed
her until I saw her with that guy.

You think you could describe him
to a sketch artist?

Can I tell my boss
I'm gonna be a while?

Yeah, sure, go ahead.

It appears that Emily went
on quite a roll

after she stole her dad's cash.

The money and the new boyfriend
may not be mutually exclusive.

I've never seen him before.

He looks much older
than Emily.

We're not sure if it's the same man,
but there's a strong possibility.

She never talked
about going on dates.

I should have known
when I saw the tattoo.

He probably made her do it.

This is all our fault.

What good is that gonna do?

The divorce tore her apart.

We behaved like children, Victor.
She always had to be the adult.

And with Xander dumping her,

of course she turned to this man-
she couldn't turn to us.

Do you know
of anyplace that she liked to hang out?

We could take the sketch there,
see if anybody recognizes him.

I'm not sure what we know
matters at all.

She did... all of this
without us knowing anything.

I'm going home.

I don't see what waiting around here
is gonna do.

All right, look,
why don't you both take a break.

I'll find you
if I need you.

Uh, Agent Keith'll see you out.
Thank you.

Hi.

I'm Karen.

Karen Grant.

Audrey Williams.

Have you heard anything
about your son?

No, not really.

And your daughter?

No. Spent more time with
a reporter than with the agents.

The reporter?

He was around about an hour ago.

He didn't talk to me.

Oh. I'm sorry.

Why? It's not your fault.

But it's not right.
I know how you must feel.

You really think
you know how I feel?

I was just sitting
in the hallway.

He came up to me- what am I supposed
to do, say no?

Just forget about it.

My child's missing, too.

I know; it's all over the news.

I'm Special Agent Johnson.
This is Special Agent Spade.

Carter has something
he'd like to tell you.

Carter?

I'd been bugging Darnell
to hack the grades

for a long time,
but he kept saying no.

Then, all of a sudden,
he was down for it.

Came to me and said he could
help me with my D in trig.

When was this?

Couple weeks ago-
I was supposed to go

to the Cape this summer,
but I had to get a 3.0.

So he decided
to cheat.

- Do you want me to tell the story?
- Please.

Darnell wanted a grand.

So I came up with the money.

Then I decided it wasn't
worth getting caught.

But Darnell wouldn't give me
my money back.

Next day I went
to go see him

after school, but we didn't get
a chance to talk,

'cause some black dude
jacked him.

Hey, Darnell.

Whatcha want now, Carter?

Come on, kid! Move!

Get in the van!
Come on! Move it!

Come on, kid! Come on! Yo, yo, yo...

Get in there!

You could take the brother
out of Harlem,

but you can't take Harlem
out of the brother.

And what would you know
about either?

All right, why don't you describe
this van for me.

It's a beater.

Brown, I think- had "St. James
something" written on the side.

And, um, can you describe
the man who grabbed Darnell?

You know, I really
didn't get a good look.

I was mostly focused
on the gun

he was sticking
in Darnell's head.

A gun?

- Who is this man?
- We don't know.

We're trying
to track down the van.

This happened two days
before he went missing-

we think it may be
related to money.

Why?

Well, according to Carter,
he'd been after Darnell

for months about
the password.

But then, last week,
Darnell changed his mind,

said he needed the money.

Well, we don't have much savings,
but we get by.

I honestly don't know
what this could be about.

Uh, yeah. Okay.

Was that about Darnell?

You are gonna have
to excuse me.

Sorry.

What am I supposed to do?

I'm doing everything I possibly can
to try and find your son.

I watch the news;
there's nothing about Darnell.

Off the record...

if I were you, I'd go and see
the man in charge,

and I'd make him very aware
of my feelings.

I would wait for the right time
where it would get the most attention.

If you were me.

Yes.

Here's my feeling-
press conferences

are a dime a dozen,
people tune out.

What I'm offering is
something much more intimate.

Really convey
who the victim is.

He has several cameras
set up.

I said he'd have to be
in and out in ten minutes.

What about
the Darnell Williams story?

After the Grant interview.

We grab Mrs. Williams,
we make it happen. Mm-hmm.

Great. I mean, I'd hate to let a
little institutionalized racism

get in the way
of an important story.

I think that this
can help both cases.

So we good to go?

Sure.

Thank you.

- Thank you, Agent.
- My pleasure.

Agent Johnson.

- Nice to see you again.
- Nice to see you.

You gonna be taking
any more agents away from me?

Come on, Viv,
you know the drill.

We've got more leads than
we know how to follow.

You know, I hope you get a really nice promotion for this, Jack, I really do.

Now, you are way out of line.

You're cutting my resources,
and I'm out of line?

I'll tell you what,
you get a break on the case,

I'll send you help.
Anything else?

No.

His name's Miles Sussman.

He was my boyfriend.

So have you seen
Emily before?

No, but I recognized the sketch of Miles
on the news.

That's when I called
the hotline.

And do you know
where he is?

He hasn't called me
in a couple of months.

Um, before that, we spent
every minute together.

He...

he took photos of me, too,
and he made me steal things.

It was like I was brainwashed
or something.

He just had a way...

Terry, listen, um,

whatever you did in the past,
it doesn't matter, okay?

We're only interested
in finding Emily.

Just talk to us.
Just tell us what happened.

He said that we had
a soul connection.

That he didn't need
to have sex with me to love me.

And then he asked me
to something for his friend.

What did he ask you to do?

He told me
I had to sleep with this man.

He only wanted
to have sex with a virgin.

He said that he would pay us
a lot of money

and that Miles and I would go
away to Mexico together.

So he sent me to meet him
at a hotel out by the airport.

Do you know
what this man's name was?

He made me call him
Mr. Frank.

He wasn't very nice.
####

Agent Malone, woul you tell us
the circumstances of Emily's disappearance?

Uh, yes, uh, on this past
Saturday night,

Emily Grant was last seen leaving
her apartment on West 60th Street.

She was also recently seen
in the company of a Miles Sussman...

26, from Brooklyn.

We're asking anyone who has
information about either party

to please come forward
and contact the FBI

or the local law enforcement.

Thank you.

Mrs. Grant, what, what you've
had to go through

these past few days would be
a nightmare for any parent.

Is there anything
you'd like to tell our audience?

Thank you.

Our daughter Emily
means so much to so many people.

We love her.

We miss her and we want her
back in our arms one more time.

And if you're out there, Em,
sweetie, please come home.

Daddy and I are so worried.

Again, if you have
any information,

please call the number
at the bottom of your screen.

For WWEN, I'm Ross Garner.

Great job.

Excuse me.

Yeah?

Hi. I got it.
I'll be right there.

We're out of here.

Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

What the hell
are you doing?

Station called. I have to go.

Where?

I got to do a stand-up
at the Grant household,

but we will be back
for Mrs. Williams.

Send another crew.

I'm sorry.
I go where I'm told.

I want
the Darnell Williams story.

I don't make
these calls, okay?

This is a teenage girl
out on the street,

vulnerable,
every parent's nightmare,

and our audience wants
to know what happened to her.

That's a reality.

You're a scumbag.

If I see you in here again,

I will kick your teeth
down your throat.

Whoa, am I going to have
to file a complaint here?

Yeah, you're gonna have to.

Stay tuned to Live At Five
for more breaking news

on the Manhattan teen mystery.

Excuse me, Agent.

Were you able to find out any more
information on that Carter boy?

- Have you spoken to Agent Johnson?
- I found you first.

I've been taken
off this... case,

so you should probably
speak to Agent Johnson.

I see.

I'm sorry.

- Agent Malone?
- Yes.

May I have a word?

Yes, of course. Uh, uh, come in.

I need you gentlemen
to leave, please.

Now.

Uh, please,
take a seat.

- These your girls?
- Yeah.

Pretty.

Yeah, they're a handful.

What happened to the interview
for my son?

It was canceled.

And you let them.

Look, I can't control
what stories they run

or when they run them,

even if I think
what they're doing is wrong.

By wrong you mean
the way all the press

has been given to the girl
and none to Darnell?

Yes, I think it's wrong,

but there isn't anything
that I can do about it.

And why not?

You have control.

I see the way things work
around here.

You pulled that lady agent
off my son's case.

That was just, uh,
that was just temporary.

I mean, we have so many
leads coming in

- on the Emily Grant case.
- Because of the media.

Yes, that, that was a factor.

So who's running things around here,
you or the newspeople?

Mrs. Williams, I'm doing everything I can
to find your son.

Then maybe I need
to do something!

Start crying or grabbing something,
maybe throw a punch!

Get these newspeople
running back in here!

If you arrest me right here,
will that help me find my son?!

Probably.

You know what the reality
of this situation is?

My black son's life isn't worth the same
as that white girl's.

Why'd you throw him
into your car at gunpoint?

That's little Darnell.
There was no gun.

You find him,
he'll tell you that.

I'll make a note
of it.

What was he doing
in your van?

I was giving him rides.

I'm technically what
you might call a go-between.

Young buck,
hold up.

Hold up, man!

Whew! You walk fast like
your daddy used to, man.

And what is it
you know about my daddy?

I know he's back in town
I know he wants to see you.

He wants to see me?

So where is he?

Well, he ain't feel too comfortable
showing his face around here.

You know what?
He's probably right.

Well, if you change your mind,

you can find him at St. James Billiards
up on Westfall in the Bronx.

Whatever.

I wasn't sure that he wanted to have
anything to do with the old man,

but a couple days later,

there he was.

Hey, Carl. Hey, hey.

In the flesh.

Have a seat.

No. No, no, no. I'm good.

Stubborn like
your mother.

- So, uh, where you been?
- That's a good question.

Might take a while
to explain.

Look, for real, what is it
that you want from me?

Mostly just to see your face.

Been a long time, huh?

Here I am. You seen enough now?

- Young man is fierce.
- Told you.

What do you expect?

I haven't seen you in ten years
and you just pop up out of nowhere.

You back on the pipe, huh?

No, no.

But my health ain't so good

and I figured I needed
to tell you a few things.

I'm listening.

I- I didn't do right by you,

but I need you
to know that,

uh, it wasn't your fault
that I left and never came back.

That's my own weakness,
that's all.

I never took it personal.

I take your word on that.

You, you a busy man?

You got a minute
to hear a few stories?

My bus doesn't come
till 5:00 anyway, so...

sure.

He came around every day
after that.

Said he wanted to get money

to get his old man
out of the squat he was living.

Where were you
on Saturday night?

With a lady friend.

Okay. So how about we do
downtown to confirm that?

Who told you I pulled a piece
on him, anyway?

Good question.

All right, that's
definitely Miles' car.

All right, we have
confirmation on the vehicle.

Hold position.

- Maybe he'll try living in it.
- What?

Well, he can't go home.

when his face is plastered
all over this damn city.

Meanwhile, Darnell's mom
can't see to buy any press.

Who's that right there?

That's him.

Suspect on the move.

FBI! Freeze!
Freeze!

Put your hands on the car!

Get your hands
on the car now!

Where's Emily Grant?!

Where is she?
Where is she?

I don't know !

What happened to your face?

I tripped on the sidewalk.

Or did Emily fight back when you
tried to sell her virginity?

Is that what she told you?

She didn't tell us anything.
She's missing.

So guess what?

Instead of being up on pimping charges,
you're going to be up for murder.

She didn't hit me.
It was this other guy.

The guy you tried
to sell her to?

Bitch got emotional.

We'd have been here an hour ago
if I hadn't taken the L.I.E.

Stop talking.

You can leave now.

So, uh, swing back
around 11:00?

When I call you.

All right, sweetheart,
so, uh...

I'll be back
in a little while.

Don't.

What?

Don't go.

Miles.

This is not a problem.

Sweetheart, we
talked about this.

Yeah, it's just that...

What?

I don't want to do it.

Why don't you sit down?

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.

I want to go now.

- No, sweet...
- Let her go.

I can handle this.

We don't need a scene.
Let her go, Miles.

Yo, I'm sorry about...

Quiet now.

I woke up, he wasn't there,
she wasn't there.

I tried to call her cell
and she never picked up.

What about the guy?

I didn't expect to ever
really hear from him again.

Turn around.
Cuff him.

Turn around.

I'm sorry about
what happened before.

It's been a long day.

If my behavior
was out of line...

You don't have
to explain yourself.

I think we've been
through enough.

Have you heard anything?

They're looking to talk
to someone right now.

That's all they've told me.

I heard the same thing.

Please.

Miles Sussman's
cell phone records.

One of the incoming calls was
from a Franklin Earl Wilson

who has two convictions
for statutory rape.

Take Danny with you and call
me when you get back in.

Van driver's alibi
holds up.

He said there was no gun,
no abductions.

So I'm going to head out
to the squat.

- Need some help?
- Bit late for that now.

Listen, you got somethingto say,
why don't you just say it?

Jack, why are you trying
to make this about me?

What?

You're just angry because you thought
you would handle this better.

What, you think you
could've handled it better?

Can I finish?

Oh, please.
Be my guest.

But you were too arrogant to believe
that any of this could touch you.

Well, let me hip you
to something-

it touches everybody,
even the great Jack Malone.

Now if you don't mind...

Hey.

Have you seen him around?

Hard to say.

Have another look.

14-D.

I didn't say so.

14-D.

You from
the coroner's office?

FBI.

I called the coroner's office
two days ago.

That's my air freshener.
I ran out this morning.

It's just my luck.

Have you seen
this young man around?

Yeah.

It was around
a couple days ago.

He's the one
who found him dead.

I haven't
seen him up today.

Hey, Dad.

I got the soup
and medicine you asked for.

Dad, come on, you need to eat.

Dad.

Dad, wake up.

Dad, wake up.

Dad...

He stuck around
for a few minutes,

then he took off.

Wasn't nothing he could do.

Couple minutes later,

I hear a fight in the alley,
and it's him again.

- Who was he fighting with?
- Some white kid.

'Bout his height
yelling at him.

Some beef over some money,
as far as I could hear.

Thank you.

One alive...

one dead.

Jack.
Yeah, Elena.

It's a positive I.D.

Okay.
